I have a lipase issue so my mill gets rancid if I freeze it directly after pumping. I have to scold the milk, put it on an ice bath to quickly cool, and then I can freeze it. I think the lipase is the only reason milk will be rancid after freezing.

Do you have to scald your milk for your baby to take it? I'm pretty sure I have lipase too (at least I did with the first baby, haven't tasted my milk this time around). My milk would have a sour (like vomit) after taste but you wouldn't know it from my LO. She drank it fresh, after being in the fridge for a couple of days and she drank it frozen and then thawed. I read as long as baby drinks your milk, not to go to any special trouble to scald it.

That must take you forever and be such a hassle. I would have given up BFing the minute I went back to work if I had to do all that.

LOL, at the typo, saw it but knew what you meant.

My oldest wouldn't take it and I still can't get my youngest to take a bottle so am not sure. My milk is good in the refrigerator for 48 hours so my DH was able to give the milk I pumped at work as long as it was within 48 hours.

I have a huge freezer supply this time and find that I am scalding all the time.
